At some point all baking sheets look like they’ve suffered through some kind of baking battle. They’re battered, stained and no longer shiny. When you decide your baking sheet deserves a permanent break from the oven, why not transform it into something new for your home?
It’s super easy to turn a worn out baking sheet into a handy magnet board. Made of metal, the board is naturally magnetic. And, all you need to take it from crusty baking sheet to slick magnet board is a coat of paint.
I picked this baking sheet to transform because it already had holes on each end—perfect for easy hanging. After a coat of paint with leftover teal paint I had sitting around, I didn’t spend anything to make this board.
Hang your do-it-yourself magnet board in the kitchen to hold recipes and notes, or use it in any other room like you would a bulletin board.
What do you think of this project? Would you give a try? I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments…

This is such a cute project! I have a couple old baking sheets that definitely look like they’ve been through a battle themselves. I have been in need of a few new ones for a while now and this little project is the perfect excuse! What kind of paint did you use?

Thanks so much Brittany! It is a super easy project with big impact! I just used some paint I had on hand. I think it was Valspar. I’m not great at spray painting, so I usually paint by hand, but you could do either. I would definitely do multiple coats. Hope it turns out well!
